Summary
In this episode of John Solomon Reports , host John Solomon dives into a shocking revelation from Senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley regarding the actions of special prosecutor Jack Smith. Solomon reveals that Smith secretly obtained the text messages of 44 members of Congress during his investigation into Donald Trump, raising serious concerns about the separation of powers and the Biden administration's alleged weaponization of the Justice Department. With a list of high-profile lawmakers affected, including Senators Graham, Hawley, and Rand Paul, this breach of privacy is explored in depth. The episode also highlights breaking news from Capitol Hill, where the House has passed a bill to make Daylight Savings Time permanent, eliminating the twice-yearly clock changes. Solomon sets the stage for an engaging lineup of guests, starting with Congressman Eli Crane, who will share his insights on current political issues. Following Crane, Victoria Coates, former deputy national security adviser under Trump, joins to discuss critical matters involving Iran, Russia, and Ukraine. The show wraps up with Texas State Representative Steve Toth, who is making waves in his congressional campaign with a clear and compelling message that resonates with voters.
